[edit]
Sarnai Malaguld is a warrior hailing from the Far East - born and raised on the wild steppes of Azim and the Ryakgyr Peninsula. Though she has traveled far through her life she still strongly identifies as a tribal raen, no matter what she is forced to become to adapt to the situations she finds herself in. She wields a bow and sword with a well-practiced air, more at home in the wilds than in a city. Her life has lead her to many places, seen her fill many roles - from a tiny spitfire hefting her father's sword against imaginary enemies, to a lone huntress on the wild steppe, to a fugitive in foreign lands. From a penniless vagrant washing up on La Noscean shores, to a Storm recruit, to a haggard mercenary. Perhaps to something more, still.. Recently, Sarnai's life has taken a turn for the inconvenient. No longer in the employ of the Maelstrom, she lacks a purpose and has found herself falling back into the role of a wandering mercenarcy to keep her coinpurse weighted. Perhaps she's simply grown used to being told what to do and no longer remembers what it is like to be truly free. She haunts the streets of sprawling cities foreign to her, dogged wherever she goes by the furtive whispering of a strange etched stone she carries close to her heart...
A keen eye may notice...
Sarnai is largely monochromatic in color. Every hair, scale and feature on her body is a uniform ivory-white, from her thick eyelashes to her short-but-sharp claws. Her skin is very pale, with only the slightest tinge of pink added from much time in the sun. Deep crimson eyes offer the only spark of color.
Sarnai is built taller and a little broader than most auri females - still somewhat shorter than a hyur, but much more solid. She is quite lean, but otherwise packed with functional muscle. There is no mistaking her build for anything other than the body of a warrior. There is the suggestion of natural curves to her form, but she would seem to be a bit too underfed and haggard to give them prominence. All in all, she is built much like a steppe tiger - solid, sleek, and powerful. Smeared across the centre of Sarnai's face is a grey blazon much like a cross or the hilt of a sword. Parts of it frequently rub off into her bangs, leaving them stained grey. From the burned scent, it seems to be mostly made of ash, and is quite water soluable. She is rarely seen without it, and protests at its removal - there is clearly some significance. Her horns are diamond-shaped in cross-section, and though they are quite substantial looking and come down to formidable points, they are not significantly less delicate than any other au ra's horns. Her right horn has a sizeable notch towards the upper point. Sarnai's tail is long and slender, terminating in two sets of barbs and a spaded tip. It is long enough that the tip may drag on the ground if she does not carry it properly, and is prone to expressive fits of movement and gesture. Sarnai's scale patterns are slightly unusual, with very few present on her limbs and torso. The patterning on her dorsal stripe is particularly ornate and spreads across the entirety of her shoulderblades, stretching from the base of her neck to the base of her tail. More notable than her pale scales however, would perhaps be the scars that ravage the plane of her skin. Most are small and superficial in appearance, faded slices and nicks that may have come from sparring or swordplay, but there are two specifically of note that draw the eye immediately when exposed, for their particularly jarring appearance. From the outside of Sarnai's left thigh to her right bicep, a deep, angry-red scar stands in stark contrast to her pale skin. From the way it wraps around the curvature of her body it is hard to believe the warrior survived. It looks as if she has almost been cut in two, if not all the way through. And encircling her throat, a similar bizarrely awful scar - this one looks almost like a deep seam between her scales, though the purple-pink of scarred tissue is unmistakeable. Both scars look as if they should have resulted from fatal injuries, and both have clearly left major weaknesses. Their prescence - and the fact Sarnai is still walking around quite the thing - suggests they're quite old, and yet they somehow don't look like they've entirely healed over properly. These scars are not normally visible under Sarnai's usual attire, her neck scar being concealed by a scarf she almost never removes and she's not fond of belly tops.
Perhaps best described as a semi-feral, leaking dingy patched with sheer stubbornness and wishful thinking, Sarnai is a woman of many internal conflicts, confusions, and is prone to reaction over thought. Though people are one of the things that definitely make her anxious, she manages to be quite cordial with most of them. If she likes you, you'll find a deadpan smartass alternating between warm words and playful barbs - Sarnai is not the best at displaying affection or cameredie, but she does try in her own way. For most however, she presents a reasonable but relatively unapproachable front. Sarnai is prone to concealing her thoughts and feelings regardless of whether or not it actually matters, believing an impassive and unmoveable facade is nessecary to move through life without trouble. As an ex-soldier and a (usually) professional mercenary, Sarnai has a good grasp of her temper and there are few things which can actually genuinely irritate her to the point of spitting fury. You'll know when you find them. Despite her stoicism, she is very prone to expressing her mood in body language and nervous habits, particularly with her tail. Sarnai is easily motivated by alcohol, opportunity to challenge herself, moral obligation, or the promise of being pet on the head and told she's a good girl.
